The Weekly Newspaper Podcast has a unique perspective on local journalism, hosted by Campus News publisher Darren Johnson who is both a college newspaper advisor/instructor as well as owner on the small-town newspaper Journal & Press (est. 1842), which was about to go out of business a few years ago when he bought it and tinkered with it enough so that it still is in print.
Anyone interested in the state of journalism and looking for solutions to preserving local news as well as college newspapers, while also modernizing these local media outlets, should subscribe to this podcast.
If you are an instructor, assign these to your classes to listen to. Topics include the ethical use of AI in Journalism, how new journalists need to look out for themselves and monetize and comparisons between today’s journalists and adjunct professors.
